Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Honey or sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Fresh fruits (such as banana or berries), optional
- 0.25 cup Nuts or seeds, optional
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, whole milk, water, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the porridge simmer. Continue to stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Cook the porridge for about 10 to 15 minutes or until it reaches your desired level of creaminess and thickens appropriately.
Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the honey (or sugar), vanilla extract, and butter until well combined.
Add the cinnamon and stir to incorporate evenly.
If desired, top the porridge with fresh fruits, such as banana slices or berries, and sprinkle with nuts or seeds of your choice.
Serve the porridge warm, and enjoy!
